The Mote in God's Eye

Well, they blew up crazy cloud in Philly last night
And they blew up his house, too.
Down on CSPAM they're ready for a fight
Gonna see what them Sanders boys can do.
Now there's trouble busin' in from D&D
And the mods can't get no relief.
Gonna be a rumble on the promenade
And jose is hangin' on by the skin of his teeth.

Everything dies, baby that's a fact
But maybe everything that dies some day comes back.
Put your praxis on, fix your AV up pretty
And meet me tonight in LF city.

Well, I got a job and I put my money away
But I got the kind of debts that no honest man can pay.
So I drew out what I had from the central trust
and I bought us two tickets on that shitposter bus.

Everything dies, baby that's a fact
But maybe everything that dies some day comes back.
Put your praxis on, fix your AV up pretty
And meet me tonight in LF city.

Now our luck may have died and our love may be cold
But with you forever I'll stay
We'll be goin' out where the posts turns to gold
But put your stockings on, 'cause it might get cold

Now I been lookin' for a post but it's hard to find
Down here it's just winners and losers
And don't get caught on the wrong side of that line
Well I'm tired of comin' out on the losin' end
So honey last night I met this guy and I'm gonna do a little favor for him

Everything dies, baby that's a fact
But maybe everything that dies some day comes back.
Put your praxis on, fix your AV up pretty
And meet me tonight in LF city.

You know he's the villain, because he's got shifty eyes.
lf was poo poo because admins deliberately didn't assign mods/ik's whatever

so it was 90% noise full of 'ironic' "doublenigger!" and other shitposts. anything worthwhile was quickly buried

the liberal rightwing mod clique on the site got jealous lf got all the views and posts so they got fyad to moderate it and run it into the ground hth

it was intentionally destroyed

note that this history is why cspam should continue to very vocally oppose mods loving w/ cspam for bullshit reasons even if it looks like tiny slights and try to get mods that arent liberals who have historically argued for hostile moderation and containment of views they disagree with

lf presaged a lot of the dumber (and funnier) tendencies of the online left in the previous decade, but

"here at lf we see a theoretical socio-politico significance in practically everything that exists on this gay earth"

is about the best encapsulation of our current madness you could possibly construct

just lol if you don't think literally every aspect of your life is political. every single component of 'civilized' life is the result of rules written by political entities. none of this poo poo just exists naturally. markets aren't naturally existing.

The thing about this subforum of something awful is that these people are not leftists or liberals - they are hardcore nihilists and extreme socialists. They see america as the punchline to a long running joke. I looked through the threads that they have running right now, featuring titles like "Dems worried about demands to grow spines". It's like if the front page of The Onion grew 2000 heads and all the heads had internet access. Look at their thread on books they are reading - marx, zizek, hunter s thompson - these are the people they look up to. Taking them seriously is only going to make them stronger.
